Nights in White Satin

Back of the Book

Bridget Benning has been on more bad dates than any woman in New Yorkthanks to the family wedding curse. Why, she's even applied to list her dating disasters in the Guinness Book of World Records! Luckily she has one man she can count onbest buddy Dermott Brandt.

He always has a strong, sexy shoulder to cry on. He's even willing to help her break the crazy curse by snooping around the family home, which is supposedly haunted.

Neither expect to end up in bed together, but they can't deny their long-simmering attraction. Can friends who become lovers deal with the changes? More important, will the wedding curse kill any chances of a stroll down the aisle?

Jule McBride's Bio

When native West Virginian Jule McBride was a preschooler,
she kept her books inside her grandmother's carved oak cabinet, to which
only she had the key. Everyday, at reading time, she'd unlock the cabinetand
the magical worlds contained in the books inside. Only later did she realize
the characters she'd come to love weren't real, and that's when
she knew she'd one day be a writer herself.

When asked why she usually writes comedy, Jule had this
to say, "I've written romantic suspense novels and love them, but
I probably love to write humor because laughter truly is the best medicine.
Besides, ever since I can remember, funny things happen to me.

"Once, in first grade, I bundled up in my coat for
recessonly to discover the hem hit my ankles, my arms were swallowed and
my belt dragged the ground. Doing the logical thing, I fled home, convinced
I was shrinking. (Mom's sleuthingshe was a great solver of conundrumsuncovered
that I'd donned a sixth grader's identical coat.)

"Nevertheless to this day, I, like everybody, feel
sometimes confused by life's little mysteries. Because of that, I love
to create heroines who are in some kind of humorous jam when they meet their
prince."

A lover of books, Jule graduated from West Virginia State
College with honors, then from the University of Pittsburgh where she also taught
English.

She's worked in libraries and as a book editor in New
York City, but in 1993, her own dream to write finally came true with the publication
of Wild Card Wedding. It received the Romantic Times Reviewers'
Choice Award for Best First Series
Romance, and ever since, the author has continued to pen heartwarming love stories
that have repeatedly won awards and made appearances on romance bestseller lists.

Today, after publishing nearly 30 Harlequin titles, Jule
writes full-time, and often finds the inspiration for her stories while on the
road, traveling between Pennsylvania, where she makes her home, and her family's
farm in West Virginia.
